() Located in Park Center between the Los Angeles Zoo and the Los Feliz park entrance, the Griffith Park Merry-Go-Round has been a Los Angleles family attraction for over five generations. Built in 1926 by the Spillman Engineering Company and brought to Griffith Park in 1937, the Merry-Go-Round boasts 68 horses, everyone a jumper. Each horse is finely carved with jewel-encrusted bridles, detailed draped blankets and decorated with sunflowers and lion's heads. A Stinson 165 Military Band Organ, reputed to be the largest band organ accompanying a carousel on the West Coast, plays over 1500 selections of marches and waltz music. feedback@famplosion.com (Daniele Turiace) Wed, 11 Feb 2009 13:13:35 -0800 http://www.famplosion.com/events/74435-Griffith-Park-Merry-Go-Round?utm_campaign=rss_events&utm_content=Griffith+Park+Merry-Go-Round&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=events http://www.famplosion.com/events/74435-Griffith-Park-Merry-Go-Round en-us
